Hi I am looking for information on the procedures/policies other intuitions have on releasing records from your CMS to the web. Currently all records from our system need to go through an approval process by curators before they can be released. There are also a number of fields that must be filled before they can be displayed in our collection search.
This process is being reviewed and information from other museums and galleries on your processes would be useful as we are keen to find the right balance between records being made available to the public in a timely manner and detailed enough to describe our collection. Feel free to reply to me off list if you prefer. Thanks Emma Jones Project officer, Collection Services, Australian War Memorial [AWM Logo not displayed in text email] ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ This message may contain confidential information and is intended only for its recipient(s).
